00:02:24 Carol: I sent a Patrick to an existing client, it was priced in a sustainable way, and they said “if that's the price, I'll do it myself.” I didn't feel bad at all. No cares at all.
00:02:37 Pauline Wiles: Win – a verbal yes for my high end package. This is from the client who originally skipped past her paid discovery recommendations, got sticker shock from the Patrick and asked for a discount. I still need to chat with her and regroup, but the vibe is much more promising now!

00:04:40 Michelle: Why did it get taken down, though??
00:06:01 Maggie Luk: Replying to “Why did it get taken…”
It was the in goal diggers w Jenna, I’m honestly not sure. I think they don’t want me to “collect information” from members? I re posted with a more “I’m just looking to connect with… “ and I don’t think it’s been taken down yet 🤞🏻

00:06:30 Michelle: Replying to “Why did it get taken…”
Ah! OK. It was in a group. That makes a little more sense.
00:07:40 Erica Nash: Hey Name!
I was thinking about you the other day!
{personal note, loved working with them, saw a social media post, how’s that promo/launch go?}
I also wanted to reach out to see how I can support you with [your business goals in 2025 – make this personal to them.]
I’ve got some new options for working together and there’s one I think might be a great fit for you.
Would you like me to send you more info?
00:09:40 Pauline Wiles: My question isn't urgent today; feel free to skip it if others have pressing coaching needs.
00:10:41 Michelle: 🧚♀️

00:13:22 Michelle: OMG. I love a llama.
00:19:35 Jenelle: 💌
00:31:39 Michelle Self: I love that! You just let them braindump and then you interpret and record
00:32:58 Jenelle: hahaha

00:35:50 Jenelle: She says she “wants her digital sales to take off” in the next year though!
00:38:16 Michelle: The author I landed doesn't have tons of sales on her two current books, but she's investing money into a website to look more professional to larger publishers and venues where she wants to book signings. Your potential client here may be willing to make an up front investment to grow.
00:38:22 Liz Lee: I would say the frequent mind changing would be a bigger red flag for me. I have worked with many beginners who have plenty of funds to invest in a website.
00:38:29 Erica Nash: It sounds like she’s looking for some strategy and coaching as well, so definitely factor that in
